Micros--t Bing - for Bing-a-lings

Micros--t has a new search engine – Bing. All the rage for the past few days in the Blogosphere.

I guess I’m a sucker for trying stuff out, but I figured I’d give Bing a chance in comparison to the tried and true Google.

I wanted to find an online copy that I knew existed of an old out-of-print book titled “The Black Hills Trails” by Jesse Brown and A. M. Willard. I searched for ‘black hills trails brown willard’ in Bing, and the first 10 results returned 0 - as in Zero (coincidentally the quality level of Microsoft products)- items that had anything to do with this book.

I entered the same search in Google, and 10 out of 10 of the first page of results were in reference to this book.

Now I’m certain that results may vary based on the specific search terms and context, however 0% vs 100% is enough for me to make my choice of a search provider. At least I didn’t lose hours of time like I have with the other Micocrap products.

Now Micros--t can offer pathetic search to complement their pathetic OS products.

 

Lest we forget...

Yes, I have been overly obsessed with the pathetic nature of Micros--t’s desktop operating systems. So much so that it seems that I have neglected to give Micros—t’s mobile OS its share of well-deserved derision. I can say that my combination Samsung Omnia with Windows Mobile 6.1 does not suck nearly as much as my Palm Treo with Windows Mobile 5.0, but it certainly has given the Treo a run for its money in the race for the pathos crown. It certainly doesn’t help that the designers at Samsung made some clearly bonehead design decisions, but you could take the most expensive jewelry in the world and dress up the Micros—t pig and it would still be a pig. But we can save this topic for another day. Suffice it to say that Windows Mobile certainly rounds out the full line of crap that makes up Redmond’s portfolio.

Micros--t's resemblance to a septic tank...

Ya gotta love these morons. These Micros—theads have gotta be the biggest assortment of clowns the world has ever known (except, perhaps, for the Democrat party).

I turn on my computer this morning and find that all of my file permissions have been changed – every single one of them. I basically can’t open nuthin’. I shut down my machine thinking that its just one of those Micros—t turds that pop up every so often. So the second time, Vista wants to totally rebuild my desktop. It takes a few minutes to do this – I’ve seen this turd before and hope it isn’t one of the big ones that stop up this Vista toilet.

I reboot again and get back to my normal desktop, but still can’t open anything because all the file permissions have changed.

So it’s off to rebuild my file permissions and deal with the detritus of yet another Micros—t bowel dump. Thanks Micros—t for destroying most of my day. I hate you!

 

Where’s the plunger?
